In-process inspection of the caulking force while assembling the rocker switch
Highly-automated production with integrated quality testing is a key prerequisite for Swiss switch and socket manufacturers. Feller AG's quality assurance system guarantees that rejects are removed from production as early as possible. The result: a permanently optimized value chain.
The highly dynamic market supplied by Horgen-based switch and socket manufacturer Feller sets demanding requirements for management and production alike. Quality reigns supreme in the electrical installation sector, so all Feller's production takes place in Switzerland.
Manufacturing costs in a low-wage country might initially seem lower, but economy measures of this sort harbor obvious drawbacks – in this case, a real risk that just a few faulty parts could paralyze the entire assembly process for months. That's why Feller set itself two goals: to achieve just-in-time zero-defect production at its home base, and to optimize costs in the long term.
